I'm not sure I understand the spit thing. Are we talking about drinking spit equivalent to an entire classroom (lets call that 25 people) spitting once into a bucket? Or are we talking about somehow draining all the spit from each person in the classroom, collecting that into some sort of spit trough, and drinking that? That's two entirely different prospects, right there, and I'd need to know which one I'm considering (as well as what the 8 people I'd be having sex with look like). There's always tradeoffs; sometimes they're worth it and sometimes they're not.

For an hour, Joi Wasill, the founder of nonprofit Decisions, Choices and Options, and Beth Cox of the Sumner County School Board provided a captive audience of high school freshmen and sophomores their take on STDs, abortion and adoption.

It wasn't completely accurate, a Vanderbilt University doctor said. But neither Tennessee state law nor the class curriculum prohibits what was said.

And the nonprofit - with its strong Christian, Republican and anti-abortion ties - is on a list of approved presenters in Nashville-Davidson County's public schools.

Meh. As far as disinformation taught in classrooms goes, none of that is even top ten.

Off to go get a smallpox blanket, which is difficult for me because white people have grossly inferior spatial intelligence and, not being Oriental, I lack excellent organizational skills. Luckily I can afford it because the Laffer Curve grants me great wealth. Which I already had because of white privilege.

OK, guys, we need to pick our battles here. If Republicans want to scare their kids into not having sex, that's a good thing. Less Republican brats having sex means less knocked-up Republicans. Less knocked-up Republicans means less baby Republicans. Less baby Republicans means fewer Republicans in the next generation. It's Darwin at work, and best of all, they clearly don't understand a word of it.

If we let them keep this up, I give it a few generations until Republicans are extinct as the Dodo, and just as culturally relevant.

I gotta say, sometimes I wish I was an amoral sociopathic asshole, it would be easy to suck on the government teat by providing bullshiat "conservative" information to any number of dumbfark legislators and school board members across this great nation.

"And the nonprofit - with its strong Christian, Republican and anti-abortion ties - is on a list of approved presenters in Nashville-Davidson County's public schools."

Standard procedure for conservatards; we've seen this in science classes as well, all the way up to the state college level; cut funding, then 'restore' the missing classes through well-heeled private rightwing religious 'volunteer' groups and 'professors' on loan from wingnut think tanks.

(children. they last forever and cost a fortune, and no matter how hard you try to get rid of them with two flushes and a plunger, they just keep pulling their head back out of the toilet and eating all my damn food)

labman:It's not like teenagers have an easy way to check these things. If only there was a website they could go to and type in a question and get answers.

Yea but teenagers are going to try and look something up, one of the links will have drawings of a naked woman and the kid stalls on the boobies, quickly forgets what he was looking for and clicks over to metart for a fap...

It's bullshiat like this that makes me doubt man is really the smartest species on the planet, it's just that we happened to luck out. How our ancestors weren't originally killed off by saber tooth tigers, t-rex's and other predators amazes me

Given the prominence of St Peter in the christian religion and his very famous denial binge, it's a no-brainer that a conservative, christian group would come up with lots of crap like this. It's a major part of their religion.
